I have a small problem which is bugging me.
Suppose I have a file abc.xyz, which has the following content.
line1col1 line1col2 line1col3
line2col1 line2col2 line2col3
Now, the following script
for line in `cat abc.xyz`
do
echo $line
done
prints the file each element wise. i.e. The output is
line1col1
line1col2
line1col3
line2col1
line2col2
line2col3
But I want to print line by line. ie. I want $line to contain an entire
line, instead of each
element.
How do I do it ?
thanks,
